Great location and lots to do!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Porters. The close proximity to the beach was a draw, but with the intermittent showers that were experienced the property pool was an excellent alternative. It provided all that we needed to manage the rain drops.

Lovely property in a great location
First impressions were excellent and continued throughout our stay. House and gardens were immaculately presented and everything had been thought of to make our stay as comfortable and convenient as possible. Difficult to find anything negative, I guess the pool is fairly small if you intend to use it for exercise (we didn’t), otherwise the garden/pool space is beautiful and we spent many hours in the outside covered area. Nikki the housekeeper was excellent and she kept the place spotless. We had a few problems with air conditioning in the last 48 hours which was just unfortunate and can’t blame anyone. Certainly wouldn’t put us off returning. If you want a great house in the perfect location for the West coast then don’t hesitate to book this, you won’t be disappointed.

A lovely well kept property. Walking distance to the beach club where you can use the sun beds at the Fairmont. Ideally need a car to make the most of your stay on the island. Holetown is a 20-25 minute walk and part of the walk there are no footpaths. Kevin the gardener and Nikki the housekeeper are both lovely and friendly and go about their work in happy friendly way. I would certainly recommend Ridgecot House.

A perfect place to stay!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this property. The property owner provided a fantastic contact to arrange airport pick up and drop off and everything went smoothly. The property manager was always accessible if we had any questions. The house is spacious and perfectly located across the street from a wonderful resort and the beach. Guest access to the resort and amenities were provided with the property rental (thank you!) and we enjoyed relaxing at the resort almost every day. The house was very well maintained and cleaning service provided by the housekeeper much appreciated. There are several great places to eat within walking distance and transportation when a taxi was needed was a breeze. My friends and I stayed for a week and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy all Barbados has to offer. This property is definitely a place I would like to stay during my next visit!

Ridgecot House June 2023
A superb property well cared for and in excellent internal condition, set in well cared for grounds. Stunning location just a short walk from the beach, Lone Star and, although some distance, manageable to Holetown as well. Housekeeper is brilliant and keeps the house spotless but does so with a smile. Pool at rear is perfect for the house size and is quiet which we loved, untroubled by racing children or noisy neighbours.

Barbados escape
My wife, 2 year old and mother-in-law stayed at Ridgecot House recently and had a wonderful stay. The home is large, modern and very conducive to relaxation. The pool and grounds were great. The home is well managed and maintained and we felt well taken care of and pampered by regular housekeeping and concierge type assistance. It’s very close to the beach with use of the facilities at the Fairmont across the street and very close to Holetown where we did our grocery shopping. The only issue that arose was some confusion as to where beach club members are allowed to occupy chairs/umbrellas and swim vs the hotel guests.

Fabulous Stay
Had an excellent stay at Ridgecot House, Communication from the owners was excellent, the property is ideally situated had everything we needed for a fantastic holiday. Enjoyable walk along the beach in to Holetown. With all its fabulous restaurants. 7 minutes stroll to the Lone Star restaurant which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The staff were very friendly and made sure the house was in top top condition throughout our stay. Lazy days were spent by the pool or enjoying a cooling breeze whilst sat on the covered terrace enjoying morning coffee and of course evening cocktails. Will definitely return

Ridgecot House Stay
We had a very enjoyable stay in Ridgecot House. The house itself is beautiful and very comfortable, we felt at home immediately. The kitchen is extremely well stocked and this extends to the bathrooms with hairdryer & hair straightener for those who succumb to the humidity like myself. Beach towels are also available and the icing on the cake is the use of the Fairmont Beach Club passes where enjoyed many days lounging in the sun. Lastly the hosts, agent and housekeeper were fantastic to deal with. Overall we would highly recommend this villa as a great base for any vacation.

A wonderful home from home
I booked this villa as a base from which to attend a family wedding (so, no pressure!) On our first full day we invited family and friends for an informal get together, and their reactions on entering the vaulted great room were as ours had been the day before - "WOW!" The covered terrace was a great place to eat, drink, relax and take occasional refuge from the fiercest sunlight or occasional spectacular downpours, and the pool - which we imagined would be merely "a nice extra" - was absolutely invaluable, and hugely appreciated by kids and adults alike. The house had absolutely everything we needed, was kept spotlessly clean by Nikki, is brilliantly located for Holetown, the beach (Kerry at the Fairmont makes a mean Bloody Mary, and thankyou to Doctor Cool for slathering us in Aloe Vera...), and more restaurants than we had time for. But whilst impressive, the house is also welcoming and homely (we never felt like impostors!), so much so that on our final night we cancelled our table at Tides, preferring to spend it "at home". The garden, discreetly maintained by Kevin, is as beautiful as the house, if not more so. Apart from the regular frog chorus from dusk onwards, visitors included hummingbirds, dragonflies, lizards, a family of green monkeys and a litter of kittens. Suffice to say we are as keen to return as we were reluctant to leave.

Beautiful house in a great location
House was perfect for our needs, with lots of space to chill out and be comfortable. Short 2 min walk to the beach where sea was so delightful. Walkable distance to three good restaurants, 10 min walk to a local shop and a short bus journey to Holetown (on the Reggae bus, always interesting) for more excellent shopping and yet more restaurants and lovely large supermarket. The very kind hosts left us a welcome hamper to get us through our first day at no cost ( thank so you). All the local people were lovely and so friendly. In short, a great break and I would definitely recommend.

Amazing Luxury Home
Mother and 2 sisters spent a fabulous week at Ridgecot House. Villa is spacious, well appointed and immaculately maintained by housekeeper, Nikki. Gardens are truly beautiful and pool crystal clear. Mother is elderly, so the AC inside or the cool breeze on the terrace offered wonderful respite from the hot afternoon sun. Access to the beach & restaurants at the Fairmont across the road allowed us the perfect balance of "resort" and the comforts of our own space. There are world class dining experiences (Lone Star, The Tides, Lobster Alive, Fairmont) a short walk or cab ride away. We loved Barbados and the Ridgecot House.

Just spend 10 days at the beautiful Ridgecot House. The property is in a perfect location, a 20 min walk or 5 min bus/cab ride to Holetown, and a 3 min walk to the beach (Fairmont beach club passes included are a great bonus). The house itself is stylish and very well looked after (thanks Ester) with lovely gardens and small pool to cool down in if you're not at the beach. Would definitely recommend !

Happy days in Barbados
Fantastic holiday in a wonderful home in Barbados. The villa had everything, and it was lovely it was a home rather than just a villa. The owners were very very helpful and made it easy navigating the Covid rules, and Ester kept the place tip top whilst we were there. The beach passes were an added bonus, with daily visits to the beach to snorkel on the reef, just off the beach, or just watching the sea. Couple of nice restaurants nearby JuJu’s and Juma to watch the sunsets, and fantastic meals at Tides, The Fish Pot and Champers a little further away. After a difficult couple of years with the dreaded Covid, was just the tonic to completely switch off and relax - unfortunately back to the grind stone now, with the memories keeping us all going, until the next visit. Would recommend to anyone.

What a beautiful villa!
We have just returned from a truly amazing holiday at Ridgecot House. We (2 adults and 4 older teens) were in quarantine for the first week, but it wasn't a hardship at all as the villa has so much space and a gorgeous little pool, and Yonette kindly arranged for our shopping to be delivered. The kitchen has everything you need, and al fresco dining with the birds and the tree frogs was very special. The villa itself has 3 beautiful en-suite bedrooms and a huge vaulted living room - a real wow factor. The location is great and the use of the Royal Pavilion Beach Club was a super bonus. We hired a car, but also used the reggae buses which passed by and were great fun. Esther, the housekeeper, looked after us wonderfully. Thank you so much, we would LOVE to return one day.

Great property in a great location We did have have issues with the fridge breaking down but this was sorted within a few days. As for Barbados the island is not ready for Guest’s we have been the island on several occasions with no issues but this trip due to the covid situation we would say that only 50% of Barbados is open,most of the hotels on the island are closed until further notice this caused us a problem as we were unable to use the fairmont beach club passes, we did manage to hire some beach loungers elsewhere for $20 per day each. Restaurants can also be a problem with some only open weekends & others very intermittent This is a world wide problem and in no way any fault of the owners. For us this was a very different experience to our previous times in Barbados. We look forward to returning back to Barbados when the world returns back to normal.
